Strawberry ice cream

Yesterday, I went to buy my groceries and the three little kids followed. By the time I reached home, I found a lot of things I didn't plan to buy including a punnet of strawberry!!!
Nobody wants to eat it and Straw berries don't last long. I had no intention of wasting it. I made ice cream.. it took a little while, but the end results....no more ice cream left..

500 ml of whipped cream
a pinch of salt


1 egg
1/2 cup sugar
Beat it well

1 punnet strawberry trimmed and cut in to pieces
1 1/2 cup of sugar
1 tbl spn water


Heat the whipping cream with the salt on low fire, till it is very hot. Pour it slowly to the beaten egg and keep stirrring. once it is mixed well, put it back on the fire and make sure the heat is LOW.. Keep stirring till the custard is thick. take it off from fire and cool, stirring once in a while

Place the strawberries and the suga with the water in a thick bottom pan. Heat till the sugar is melted and the strawberry is cooked. use a hand blender and blend. Pour the strawberry mix in to the custard..cool and freeze.

Note:you can make it without cooking the strawberry..but I liked the cooked version better
if you don't like the seeds, blend it completely and strain in to the custard.
if you have time, when the ice cream is half set, take it off and whizz it once more in the blender and re freeze.
